1313 Mockingbird Lane has always been home to The
Munsters®, Lily, Herman, Eddie and Grandpa, and Marilyn.
This model has the Munsters enjoying a quiet evening at home in their living room. The
original Munsters model kit was first introduced in 1964 by Aurora Plastics. Today, that
same kit unassembled and boxed is worth $875. Assembled and painted, its value is
approximately $375.
With some minor retooling changes,
Playing Mantis's Polar Lights division has created an almost identical version called, The
Munsters Family Living Room. Included in the kit are Lily's casket-chair, Herman's
"electric" chair, a fireplace, TV, spider webs, bats and rats. With a family
made up of a Frankenstein look-alike, a lady vampire, a werewolf and a Count Dracula, this
new model kit relives the family's "peculiar" lifestyle. |
